RSNs Seeing Blackouts on Comcast and Dish

Regional sports networks went dark on Comcast and Dish Network over carriage license terms. MSG Networks said Friday the Comcast blackout was primarily in New Jersey and Connecticut and the cable company was "try[ing] to force us to accept terms they’d never agree to for their own regional sports networks." Comcast didn't comment. Dish emailed late that it's not carrying AT&T SportsNet and Root Sports and is pushing for RSNs to be available a la carte to subscribers in negotiations with parent AT&T. The telco didn't comment.
